It SEEMS, The Frog Princess could be Disney's first African American princess, in a New Orleans-ish setting with a Jazz soundtrack and not a very theatrical soundtrack!
And that might explain the preference of Randy Newman over Alan Menken. [/i]
...I am deathly afraid for Ron and John right now . I love the resolution to not exactly using an "African" country setting (since, you know, they're still catching hell for the last ethnic movie they did like that *points to this place* ), but I bet you dollar bills people will fuss over the New Orleans thing. BET YOU. Come on, who wants to take bets? |
Omg....just....omg.
::raises flag for R&J and starts Eulogy::
I'm excited about FP but I'm a little scared for them too.  I hope they use a NO-ish setting and not the actual place. I'm willing to take you up on that bet! |

Silly aritcle,black little girls don't need a black Princess to like the Princesses,a black little girl can like which Princess she wants,so only Arabian girls can like Jasmine? only Native American little girls can like Pocahontas? no they don't,and let's not forget that we have Tiana but I think that the only (Or main) reason that they made her movie and her character is to add a black Princess to the line.
Oh,and:

Fantasia? what? or whoever worte means Aurora? or Belle? if it's Aurora then it's sad to see many people only knowing her as Sleeping Beauty with Disney keep calling her that way but now they don't know who she is at all,that's sad .

I think it's too lighthearted a subject to find it sad, really - especially since she doesn't actually exist.

I agree,Billy Joe. Like I said,I'm black,and not having a black princess didn't bother me.
If u ask me,if u want more "ethnic" versions of these stories,watch Happily Ever After,Fairy Tales For Every Child. It has a Chinese TLM,a black Jack and the Beanstalk,a Hispanic Cinderella,and so on. |
I have totally seen that version of The Little Mermaid! I loved it.
...Yay for youtube. Which reminds me, anyone who hasn't seen the Faerie Tale Theatre version of Aladdin NEEDS TO, and I'm posting it. Just...not right now, since I'm on my way to Arabic right now.
And, since I am no longer on my way to Arabic...The Faerie Tale Theater version of Aladdin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDU3H6-WYhA&feature=related
...This is totally offtopic but I'm posting it anyway. |
